Description-en: American English dictionary words for /usr/share/dict
This package provides the file /usr/share/dict/american-english-insane
containing a list of English words with American spellings.
This list can be used by spelling checkers, and by programs such
as look(1).
.
This is an even larger list than the one installed by wamerican-huge,
and possibly contains invalid words (as well as words that are very
uncommon). Nothing prevents you installing both (and others) at the
same time.
.
There are also -small and standard versions of this word list,
and there are wbritish* and wcanadian* packages as well.
